connection 0

I am not an advanced user of computer so please do not use complicated terms when replying.

I have just downloaded phex 3.2.0.102, but could not seem to get any connections. The connection at the bottom left hand corner shows 0. I tried changing the firewall setting, allowing exceptions for the phex programme, i also opened a port, which is 13241, the port which I am listening to when using the phex programme. I've tried re-starting the router, re-starting phex, but it didn't work.

Please help!

Thanks,
